Arsenal's current number one, Wojciech Szczesny, is clearly an upgrade over previous incumbent Manuel Almunia. He's still only 23-years-old, has undoubted potential and loves the club, but he does have a tendency to make rash decisions and there's an argument that most of their title rivals have more reliable keepers.

Thanks for watching!

With 16 France caps and over 300 club appearances, the 28-year-old's experience and shot-stopping ability could be just what the Gunners need. Mandanda's Marseille side currently sit in fifth place in Ligue 1, and the keeper has conceded 29 goals in 27 games.

Arsenal will definitely need at least one goalkeeper in the summer, after Lukasz Fabianski announced his intention to leave when his contract ends. There have been reports of Emiliano Viviano sightings since his loan signing in the summer, but these remain unconfirmed.
